Psalms50:17

17. Seeing thou hatest instruction , and castest my words behind thee .

Seeing thy Practise Contradicts thy Profession, and makes thee a Notorious and impudent Lyar. Though with thy Mouth [illegible: 1 word] shewest much Love (as is said of them, Ezek. 33. 31.) to my Statutes and Counsels, yet in Truth thou hatest them, as they are Curbs to thy beloved Lusts, and Instruments of thy just Condemnation, and a manifest reproach to thy Conversation. Or, Seeing thou hatest Reproof, as this Word is oft rendred. And this above all other parts of Gods word, is most hateful to ungodly Men, Prov. 9. 8. and 12. 1. and 15. 10. 12. A[illegible: 1+ letters]os 5. 10. And therefore this is fitly alledged as an Evidence of their Wickedness.

As men do things which they abhor or despise.
